I had the thought this morning that alanon is de-programming me from the crazy cult I was in with my A! My thinking got distorted, I lost my self-esteem, I became obsessed with what my A was doing, and I didn't have my own life. This is exactly what happens in cults-you loose yourself and let someone else be in control. And in the decision to leave the cult it brings up all this emotion and confusion and guilt. And then thank God, the dust starts to clear and I can often see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm breaking free, little by little. Thanks, Lyne
